^pretty sure they aren't

reason because of the mounting points. i'm sure it will fit but it won't work correctly.

C&R makes a nice all alum. dual core for 4th gens

I have a C&R in my car with A/C. I tossed the old fans out with the stock radiator. You wire up the C&R fan and it turns on with the t-stat switch and whenever the A/C is on. Unless you really need it for some reason, I'd just go with an aftermarket stock type replacement with aluminum ends. $500 is a lot for most people to spend on a radiator.

whats the difference in a koyo/fluidyne/C&R??? they are all pretty much the same, i might even dare to say they are all exactly the same with different labels (face it, there isn't an aftermarket for preludes like other hondas)

plus these large rads really don't help when you are running around town. even road racing preludes have used their stock rads.

No. If you've ever seen a Koyo and a C&R, they're clearly different.
